Weight Management

Standard

Mei-Shun has gained one more sugar bag since she started walking in the morning. Sooo shocking, yet there is always a reason why her tyre around the waist grows. It is simple; she has eaten too much. And she knows well the easiest way to lose weight; she should eat less. Exercise is good for health, while never means she can consume all energy she happily took in.

Settled Themselves

Standard

Today is 立夏=rikka, the first of summertime 二十四節気 including other 5 of 小満, 芒種, 夏至, 小暑 and 大暑. Now we see neatly planted rice paddies after yesterday’s storm. And Mei-Shun took the worst 凶 omikuji for the first time at the nearest shrine! Well, she starts from here, it would mean.

rice planted (2)planted (2)kyou!

 

Crasher Clouts

Standard

How shocking it is to see her glasses broken! A metal frame for drying clothes suddenly fell on Mei-Shun. This is the 2nd time — they always protect her eyes sacrificing one of themselves. Thanks and sorry, kind twins. “You didn’t get any hurt, did you?” said Shin first when his wife informed on the misfortune.

Emergency!

Standard

While Mei-Shun relaxed at nearby beauty salon, a slight accident occurred in her … lower body. Something began to knock her from inside, getting stronger little by little from a castanet via small and big drums to a cymbal. She immediately left with a frozen smile on the face, drove carefully to home. Yes, she made it — a narrow escape.

16-Year Work

Standard

Our dishwasher seems broken. It won’t turn on since last Wednesday — actually it sometimes does, yet never starts. Well, it is 清明=seimei today, the 5th of 二十四節気. Refreshing southeastern wind is said to blow, while it changed from warm-southern one to cold-eastern. Time of amendment might have come.

Eye Protector

Standard

It seems most women like to see mirrors, yet not for Mei-Shun right now. Shin noticed yesterday morning that she had reddish eyes, especially in the left. Her home ophthalmologist Dr. S diagnosed it as subconjunctival hemorrhage, which would take approx. 2 weeks to heal. Such a horrible look prevents her from going out. Just stay at home, play with Ms. Piano, it might say.

A Big Tyre

Standard

… Mei-Shun has grown around her waist. It occurs every year actually, since she has too much sweets, feasts and alcohol of great taste from the end of December to the middle of January. Now she started to reduce carbo, her favorite, in diet. It is the most feared to get weight back immediately, so good cooking to enjoy every necessary nutrient is the key.

Tasty Floor?

Standard

Mei-Shun spilled olive oil in the kitchen this morning. She was shocked first, and thought after a moment that it was not so awful. This ingredient is not only a great source of unsaturated fat but also reputed as a fine cosmetic. Then why don’t we make up the floor with it? A bit slippery though.

Last Mistake?

Standard

Mei-Shun went to Shinagawa for a haircut and lunch with Shin. He has been in the busiest time of the year. We discussed on the phone to exchange his souvenir from Kyushu and clothes. Mei-Shun prepared it in a small bag, bring it down to the porch and — left it there. Oh- oh.

A Heartwarming Story: 2

Standard

It is clear today. Mikan-chan’s mom cooked, cleaned, read newspapers and hung futons in the balcony. Fine mornings are her busiest time. After lunch, she opened her computer to fill the household book and … oh? Where is her purse?
